Women & Golf launch golf course reviews ‘by women for women’

10.19am 13th January 2023 - Media

Women & Golf, the leading media brand in the UK for women’s golf, has launched a new section on its website featuring golf course reviews by women and for women.

The new golf course review feature will give female golfers the opportunity to have their say about the golf courses that they play. It will also give fellow Women & Golf readers the chance to find golf courses that really have women golfers in mind.

There are over 200 UK and Ireland courses already reviewed on the site, with more courses being added weekly. There is also the option for golfers to add a course that they would like to review. For those looking for inspiration, users are able to search by region and/or star rating to find a golf course in a specific area.

Prior to today’s launch, the review section was tested by Women & Golf Members at the end of 2022 to gain feedback and fine tune the review process, before launching to the wider Women & Golf community. 

As well as being able to provide a written review and give the golf club a star rating out of five, there are also female-specific questions relating to areas such as slope rating and changing facilities. 

Women & Golf Editor Emma Ballard said: “I have heard numerous times in the last two years that this would be a really useful tool to have. Think of this as the TripAdvisor for women golfers! 

“There is, of course, work to do to make sure that every golf club in the UK and Ireland are able to be reviewed. However, we believe we have a great starting point to work from and are confident the listing of clubs will grow quickly.

“To make the Golf Course Reviews by women, for women, the success we know it can be, we are going to rely on the user-generated content from our readers, who we believe will embrace this new feature. As the platform evolves, it is our hope to extend across the world, especially in America and Australia, where our readership continues to grow. We’re really excited to launch our course review section and look forward to seeing how it is received by our fellow women golfers.”

Golf clubs interested in having their course included, should contact Jane Lees, Women & Golf’s Head of Sales & Marketing.
